At David Beckham’s club in the United States, former Liverpool striker Suarez has reunited with former Barcelona teammates Messi, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba.

Additionally, Messi, 36, was pleased to demonstrate that he is still in the physical shape that helped Argentina win the 2022 World Cup and earned him his most recent worldwide Player of the Year award two months prior.

Unicef spokesperson Antonela shared a gym selfie of the toned couple on Instagram, which she took wearing a sporty crop top.

Book appeared to be in top shape, but Messi had the intense air of a player who was ready to take a crucial penalty, while Book grinned broadly.

Of course, he accomplished exactly that twice in a historic victory over France in the World Cup final in Qatar a year ago.

During his double, he scored a spot-kick to help his team to a 3-3 draw in overtime.

Subsequently, he scored the first goal in Argentina’s 4-2 shutout victory.

The former PSG player won’t be seen on a field again until a February friendly against Al-Hilal, the team of Cristiano Ronaldo.

Miami’s warm-up games will also feature prominent performances from Messi’s first club, Newell’s Old Boys, and Japanese team Vissel Kobe.

On February 21, Messi’s MLS debut under fellow Argentinean Gerardo Martino takes place at home against Real Salt Lake, a team in the Western Conference.

And Suarez is anticipated to line up next to him, resuming his role as two-thirds of the ideal Barcelona assault that he and Neymar built in the future.

The Uruguayan legend, who was crowned player of the season in the Brazilian top division, moved to Miami this month.

The 36-year-old Suarez determined that he couldn’t participate in the second year of his Gremio deal due to his knee.

As he stated, “I look forward to reuniting with great friends and players,” he is eager to play with Messi again.
